Phoenix Gold ISM-8 8-Zone Impedance-Matching Speaker Selector

The ISM8 is a low-profile speaker distribution system with individual on/off selectors for each listening zone, which distributes one stereo speaker-level signal to eight stereo listening zones. The ISM Series also provides manual power protection that is activated from the rear panel. The manual power protection switch engages 10 ohm / 15 watt resistors wired in parallel (three per channel in the RSM8) providing higher power handling capability than the competition (able to handle up to 50% more power!) in order to protect your amplifier. All ISM?s are capable of handling 140 watts per channel total input power without the manual protection engaged and 70 watts per channel with the protection engaged. The spring-loaded guillotine-style push terminals accept up to 12 gauge cable. A daisy-chain output terminal allows you to connect several speaker selectors together for almost limitless combinations! The ISM?s feature 16 gauge steel construction with our durable black wrinkle powder coating and gray silk-screening. Each unit is provided with an in-depth instruction sheet and die cut labels that fit the recessed area on the buttons for labeling each zone. The ISM6 and ISM8 are standard 17? (component) width unit.
